"With all due respect to the Moroccans we're going to score
five or six against them because we know that in the following
game Al Nassr will not be able to contain Corinthians," said the
Brazilian international.

Carlos heightens the competitiveness between the group leaders, having begun his career at Palmeiras, Corinthians' great rivals.

He made matters worse before the tournament by asking Palmeiras fans to support whoever played Corinthians.

Real coach Vicente del Bosque has expressed concern that the Brazilians, who play after the Spanish side, will have an advantage because they will know what score they need against Al Nassr to progress.

"The format gives a slight advantage to the team who play
second," he said.

Del Bosque also suggested that Fernando Morientes, who is recovering from injury, could start. That would mean the bench for former Arsenal star Nicolas Anelka.

The Frenchman ended his goal drought with two on Friday, having failed to score for Real since joining them at the start of the season for a record transfer fee.

Meanwhile, Corinthians striker Marcelinho Carioca may not play due to an ankle injury picked up against the Spaniards.
